French philosopher Paul Ricoeur gave sustained attention to several themes pertinent to a hermeneutics of liturgy, including symbol, metaphor, narrative, subjectivity and memory. This book explores how Ricoeur's original insights may serve to renew contemporary Orthodox liturgical theology. The Byzantine-Rite "Great Blessing of Water" serves as a case study.
